Ruby Examples
Using the RBC controller
You can download the Ruby-extension for controlling the Robobuilder using a GNU+Linux PC here:
Here is a small example program which makes the robot get up if it's lying on its back or its front.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'robobuilder' require 'matrix' class Vector def norm Math.sqrt inner_product( self ) end end robot = Robobuilder.new '/dev/ttyUSB0' puts "Robobuilder" puts "Serial number: #{robot.serial_number}" acceleration = Vector[ *robot.accelerometer ] if acceleration.inner_product( Vector[ 0, 0, 1 ] ) > acceleration.norm * 0.97 robot.basic robot.a elsif acceleration.inner_product( Vector[ 0, 0, 1 ] ) < -acceleration.norm * 0.97 robot.basic robot.b end acceleration = Vector[ *robot.accelerometer ] if acceleration.inner_product( Vector[ 0, 1, 0 ] ) > acceleration.norm * 0.97 robot.run 1 end robot.close
